GWO CoHE Training Standard V0
Facilitate group discussions with the participants and give constructive feedback to the participants´ group discussions about the requirements for tools to be used for testing for the absence of voltage:
a. Have limited functionality and be with fixed test leads.
Or;
b. Be multimeters with an audible alert function to warm the user in the event the meter function selector and test leads positions are not compatible.
NOTE:
Test probes must be selected to match the physical requirements of the test point and be in accordance with local electrical regulatory requirements Non-contact voltage detectors are for use only with non-contact voltage portals or for double checking that the Lockout boundary is in an Electrically Safe Work Condition.
Non-contact voltage detectors are not allowed for Test-Before-Touch verification.
NOTE:
Above requirements for tools to be used for testing for the absence of voltage is considered best practice, but please emphasise to the participants that these requirements could vary between companies based on specific company rules and local legislation.
The participants shall:
Engage in the group discussions and share understandings about the requirements for tools to be used for testing for the absence of voltage.
The instructor shall:
Show examples of the hazards of using a multimeter for absence of voltage testing and demonstrate how to reduce these hazards. Facilitate group discussions with the participants and give constructive feedback to the participants´ group discussions about the hazards of using a multimeter for absence of voltage testing and how to mitigate these hazards.
The participants shall:
